  Surprisingly unoffensive but it does have some off flavors. Sipping this in conjunction with eating anything results in a miserable combination. I'm providing some wine education sessions for a sister in law, and used this as an example of what she normally brings to parties and gifts to friends. We stacked this up against 4 other more quality wines just to allow her to taste her normal stuff against better stuff. Doing that drill really helped her see the pros and cons of having something like this as your go-to product.
  Flavor is pretty nondescript grape up front, mega-purple stains the teeth and lips, residual sugar is in check but certainly there. Completely hollow and the aftertaste on the finish is rather grating to the point where I wish the finish were shorter. Some kind of burnt chemical tinge in that finish too. But overall, its a wine that fairs a lot better than many other offerings in the $5 range.

  For a $5 wine, it's pretty tasty. I would buy again

  Strawberry jam....cherry.. simple... oak and rubber (tire fire?). Mild tannins. Not bad for the price.
